UMA LEITURA ANTROPOLÓGICA DO PROCESSO DE DEMARCAÇÃO DE TERRAS AMERÍNDIAS NO BRASIL

This paper has as its purpose to answer the following problem: in legal cases that reveals an ethnocentrism, like in the judicial decision of the Federal Supreme Court that ruled in the petition 3388 about the demarcation of the Raposa Serra do Sol indigenous land, which are the confrontation paths invisible for law that could be open up by the anthropological view of the amerindian perspectivism? From a theoretical and methodological point of view, was tried to develop a path in phases to reach, in the end, a radical anthropological criticism of modern law. In the first section is made an initial opening about the crossings of ethnocentrism and modern law since some comments of Lévi-Strauss and ideias of the Philosophy of Liberation. After is made a cross between juridical and anthropological arguments for a review of the demarcation conditions of indigenous land in Brazil established by the Federal Supreme Court from the Raposa Serra do Sol Case. Here it’s showed a first open path by the anthropological criticism of modern law. For last, it is pointed out a possibility of radicalization of the anthropological criticism of modern law through the idea of amerindian perspectivism, revealing other confrontation paths of the ethnocentrism and resolution paths of the cultural conflicts.
